    Description

    2 acres of beautiful Ready-to-Build wooded land in Highlands area with a partial view of the mountains! Current Owner graded and prepped the land for building a home but is instead selling it. A 300' deep private well has already been drilled drawing an exceptional 30 gallons per minute (a pump is needed) and a 3 BR septic permit is good until 9/24/25. No concern about buying land and then discovering it doesn't perc or you need to drill hundreds of feet to get to water! Beautiful lot with a mountain stream (Bennies Branch), great location on a state road, no HOA and ready for your dream home!
    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

      "It’s beautiful and appears to be a great place to raise a family. I used to come here as a child back in the 70’s with my parents and it’s still as I remember it. Quaint and beautiful. "

      "Great small town. Elevation 4000 feet plus. Friendly residents. Lots to do for a small town. A little pricy, but worth it. Great hiking and waterfalls galore. Dog friendly neighborhood and town."

      "There's no Wal-Mart or fast food joints. Life in the mountains has an easier pace. You are removed from the city, but that's why we live here, to get away from it all. There is a world class spa, fine dining on smaller scale, exquisite shops. Think Breckinridge, without the skiing.Beautiful mountains, hiking, mountain biking, floral life, live music, plays, wineries, what more do you want?"

      "A wonderful community with a year round caretaker, pool, tennis courts and swimming pool plus it is gated. Certainly not a necessity in Highlands! I would recommend King Mtn to anyone looking for lush foliage, fantastic views and wonderful amenities."
